I can see why everything is centralized: moderation. How would you ban NFTs that would be considered illegal?
Sure a solution would be to put the NFTs on a decentralized file system (IPFS?) or a P2P sharing network. And have kind of P2P/decentralized API that can easily be validated. But then, how would you ban illegal content?
I'm sure Opensea would prefer to keep everything centralized and under control. But clearly, there is room for improvement.
The uniswap people made a standard called tokenlists to help users filter out spam and junk tokens while still allowing anyone to list any token. I don't see why this couldn't work for sets of NFTs as well.
You seem to readily assume there is such a thing as universally "illegal" content. Can you elaborate? Who decides what is "illegal"? Which jurisdiction? Who enforces it?
